Mrs. Noce is better looking than the other trackday organizers.

I am shallow and make choices based on looks!

Rider's Choice put on really good days, always well organized and every one there is willing to give you a hand if you need it.
Haven't been to any PRO6 days but plan on doing a few Calabogie days this year and I always hear good stuff about their days/set up.
I've never ridden TMP but the majority of the people that I spoke to regarding that track say they tried it and would never go back, or use it as a filler when there's nothing else going on.

Mosport is definitely worth the extra $ and I'm betting that Calabogie will be as well.
2014 is going to be awesome indeed!

$125 - TMP
$150 - $170 - Shannonville (RC)
$170 - $230 - Mosport (RC, RDT/Big track)
$260 - Calabogie (P6)

Your best bet would be to try them all.

Pro6 will charge you a small fee if you're new to that particular track or track riding in general to have somebody work with you one on one in the early sessions. Rider's Choice do the same thing at no extra charge. Don't let that be a deciding factor, whichever track you go to, you will always find someone to help you out, at least that has been my experience so far. (Thanks Dave!)

Well said.

You are welcome. See you out for your Phase 2 training this year?
 
Also note that if your schedule permits weekday track sessions are normally less expensive than weekends. Sometimes less populated too.
 
Of all the groups I've done track days with, Pro6 has been the best. Rider's Choice has also been excellent.

The only groups that concern me are the ones that do track days but have very little in the way of marshals or ambulance services. I jumped in and did some flag work last year on one of those groups, very sketchy. They're privately run, but that doesn't excuse them for not running a safe event.
 
I've ridden with:
Pro6
Riders Choice
Golo/Hot Laps
Pure Trackdays
GWB
Private (not the same private days mentioned herein)

Pro6 are the benchmark from my experiences. They run a great, efficient and safe trackday and have a great selection of days.
Not downplaying the other organizers, as they all ran good/great events also.

I think he could have been talking about Sandy. He does hail from Hamilton, and they're a bit weird down there.

...I mostly stay with Riderschoice at Shannonville. I did pro6 at Shannonville long last year and it was a bunch of good guys and good tech guys that help you out if you have any issues. Last year we did get a bunch of guys that pushed beyond their limits on Shannonville (Riderchoice). John was their to short out the group and almost ended the day unless people started acting more mature.

That was a weekend track day (the only one on the RC calendar), which brings out a lot more street riders than on a weekday. People tend to go past their limits regardless of the organizer, but every year there are always a good number of Riders Choice TDs where the ambulance stays parked all day. Plus, if you register for a Fabi track day, there's a good chance that you get to ride Long track if no one is renting Nelson that day.
 
Good ones that I have been to: Pro 6 Cycle, Rider's Choice, Racer 5, Golo/Hot Laps/TSBK, and the GTAM days.

Watch out for the possibility that a particular day could be oversubscribed. Too many riders results in more people entering inappropriate groups, and it makes the consequences of that worse. (If there's only 10 people on track, one of them in the wrong group generally isn't a big problem and there is room for the organizers to switch them, but 3 people out of 30 in the wrong group is a bigger problem, and the organizer can't fix it because the group that they should be in, is full.)

Weekdays ... and practice days for roadrace events ... and support the less popular track day providers as long as they are still good ...
